My Dream Job


A disclaimer: the essay has nothing to do with me in real life. I've just made it all up.


Hope you will understand my choice to arrange things this way. 


Nowadays there are lots of huge and successful companies and corporations which a great number of young people strive to work for. While some people truly love medicine, history or sport, others find it fascinating to work in IT. However, all the spheres mentioned above have nothing to do with my preferences and dreams. 
To begin with, I've always been interested in space. Not only did I watch lots of scientific films and series related to it when I was a child, but also I had plenty of magazines on this topic. Stars, galaxies and even aliens have always aroused my interest. That is why I decided to be an astronaut a long time ago. Now that I've grown up, I can see that this occupation has many advantages which I am satisfied with a lot. 
Firstly, generally, this job is very important in terms of exploration and research: the more people become astronauts the better, faster and more thoroughly we can explore space. If a bigger number of people took part in this mission (compared to that we have today), it would allow the humanity to seek for other forms of life except that of Earth. So, what I mean is, the general purpose of this occupation is humane. Plus, it’s a great chance to meet lots of other people who share your interests and desires and who want to improve this world just as I do.
Secondly, I'm a perfect example of such type of person that fits a pattern of a true astronaut. I have never been afraid of challenging myself, of tackling problems, facing my fears. In addition, my health conditions also allow me to apply for this job. An astronaut must be a cold-headed, brave, intelligent person with great physical abilities like endurance and stamina. Unfortunately, people with bad health are not allowed to work there; much less can the disabled people work there, however, it isn’t always like that. What is more, even if a person's body is prepared to be in space conditions, it's not enough: astronauts have lots of physical exercises as well as tasks aimed to practice their mind, to mentally prepare a human to face extraterrestrial conditions. [Here is a link] 
Thirdly, I have enough knowledge in the English language which, I assume, would allow me to work not only for Russian companies, but also for such corporations as NASA. A specialist with good knowledge of any language, especially English, has always been more employable than that of just specialists.
Fourthly, in the Russian company Roscosmos which I want to work for, salaries for astronauts are incredibly high. Moreover, such people always have a stable income, long holidays and lots of other benefits, including early retiring with high pension. For now, I need to graduate from this uni so that I can enroll at the Moscow's one where I can study to be an astronaut. 
All things considered, being an astronaut is a very prestigious and responsible job. Not only does it show your knowledge in everything: engineering, language, mathematics, etc., but also it shows how well you can get on with people as living on a spacecraft in small rooms requires that you must communicate with others all the time. I've been dreaming about this occupation since I was seven, and I will definitely aspire to it in the nearest future.

    1. However, there are quite a few things to consider: they are mosrly to do with the Mechanics of writing
      such people always have ART stable income
      job is very important in terms of **explorations and researches: WNum > here both words should be in singular; "exploration" can be used in plural in e.g. in reference to various types of explorations or a collection of explorations; "research" on the other hand is ALWAYS used in singular and is an uncounrable noun; however, if it is combined with the word "study", it can be used in both sg and pl., so it's correct to say "a research study" in sg. and "research studies" in pl
      it would allow THE humanity: the definite article is necessary
      I'm a perfect example of **that type of person > such a type of person
      enough knowledge **in (PREP) the English language
      such people always have ART stable income
      to enroll **at (PREP) the university
      being an astronaut is ART very prestigious and responsible job
      Gr: requires that you must communicate: check how to say it correctly

Post-6

Chinese people tend to forget characters throughout their lives because of technological progress: mobile phones, laptops, Ipads, etc. According to the video , not only can’t older people write down some characters, but also lots of teenagers find it difficult to remember such widely used characters as, for example, a tooth paste, obscene, etc. In my opinion, it’s becoming a national problem in China. Nowadays, there are lots of surveys in China that draw people’s attention to characters and their remembrance. To begin with, such surveys have several goals to achieve: to show the Chinese people how the world has influenced their culture and language and what can be solved or done to prevent such problems to occur in the nearest future. For example, the number of people using laptops and gadgets has increased for the recent fifteen years and that is why the need in handwriting slightly decreases over the years. People would rather text each other in their gadgets than write somethi...

Wokring on improving my skills to make a better thesis statement

1. In the era of electronics, computers are likely to be found in most of educational institutions or companies so that people can have more opportunities to learn or work with the help of technology. 2. Although the judge has not been yet provided with strong evidence against Scott Peretson, implication in a crime of the latter is still a disputable question. 3. The results of the recent survey detected that hamsters are considered to be by far the cutest rodents because of their fur. 4. Lots of middle-class people in America claim that colleges charge high tuition, however, not only do they provide students with specific knowledge that is necessary for their future work, but also they teach students how to think out of the box. 6.Although traditionally people make New Year’s resolutions about cutting weight, the recent research showed that only 30% of such people have enough discipline and persistence to make their wishes come true. 7.Prejudiced attitude towards new hip-h...

The Financier

The Financier I chose to read a novel 'The Financier' written by Theodore Dreiser. Honestly, I had a choice to make: to read Martin Eden (the book which I had already read in Russian) or to read the Financier which was  completely new  book to me. I decided to give it a go and start reading the Financier. It's important to mention that I enjoy reading such books as they encourage their readers to act like the main characters, to achieve their own success through constant struggles and adversities. The book cover doesn't contain a lot of info about the plot. It only briefly tells a reader about the author(1). 'The Financier' is based on real-life of streetcar tycoon whose real name was Charles Yerkes.  I reckon the main theme of the book is competition or, to put it in another way, a financial war. It symbolizes Frank's determination in gaining his goals and his desire to have an upper hand over everyone competing with him. He wants total ...
